Compare and contrast the vision of war articulated in Where Eagles Dare with “The Things They Carried."
Your essay should contain three or four body paragraphs, each with a discrete subject of comparison or contrast. The body paragraphs should of course all fall under a general thesis which is enunciated in the introductory paragraph.
2-3 pages, double spaced.
You should definitely refer to other texts we have studied or looked at, as well as other materials you think worthwhile. Examples:
-- other O'Brien stories
-- Apocalypse Now clips
-- websites reviewing WED such as Groucho.com and the comparison with Simon Esling' s art
-- Quentin Tarantino / Robert Zemeckis conversation
-- MacLean's novel (you can google books this or Amazon)
-- AVForums.com review (useful for background/hearsay information and for reminders about some of the jokier quotations)
Make sure you cite these properly and include a Works Cited list at the end of your paper.
